Together we are creating World Without Suicide.

We are more than our illnesses.

We are fighting to end the stigma of mental illness/health and to promote suicide prevention. We understand the compassion and we want to advocate to society, to change norms, and make our world a more comforting place through our Happy Thoughts.

So far we’ve together raised​~$21,000for suicide prevention!

This is Josh and this is his Story

"Throughout my life, I have dealt with many mental illnesses and multiple thoughts of suicide - with a few attempts. The first attempt was when I was twelve years old. I tried to hang myself. It was such a dark, depressive, and negative time. It started with a lot of self doubting thoughts and lacking my self worth. I thought since I wasn't as handsome, smart, or perfect as everyone else, I didn't deserve to be alive. This was similar to when I tried again. I was always told to achieve happiness and peace, and due to my depression, I was never peaceful until I was asleep at night. That was slumber was only temporary peace, however, death was permanent peace, so I attempted suicide in trying to achieve peace. And I was unable to see that I was going to do a permanent solution to a temporary feeling. Suicide is preventable with help. Help from others through education and awareness."

Quality Candles

We believe in quality candles. Here at Happy Thoughts Candle Co. we believe that everybody should have the opportunity to experience a high quality candle. However, we believe that, these candles should be affordable enough for everyone. We believe in using only the finest essential oils in order to achieve a nice aroma, that is guaranteed to brighten your day. We have candles that are made for everybody in general, but we do have candles for those who have anxiety, stress, and depression. Our candles are also there as a pep or a pick me up, and we even have scents that could bring back memories from your childhood.
